Approved for $170 weekly unemployment - when will first payment arrive after waiting week processed on 4/24?

Just got approved for unemployment. My weekly benefit is $170. I'm looking at my claim information right now, and it shows: Start/Effective Date: 04/03/2023 Benefit Year Ending Date: 04/06/2024 Weekly Benefit Amount: $170.00 Maximum Amount Payable: $5,520.00 Effective Days Remaining: 104 The website shows my waiting week was processed on 04/24/2023. Specifically, under "Latest Transaction(s) as of 04/25/2023" it says: "You last certified for benefits for the week ending 04/23/2023. Your unpaid waiting period was processed on 04/24/2023." There's also a note that says "Weekly payments for $600 showing '0' under the 'Effective Days' column, and Debit Card or Direct Deposit under the 'Type' column, are the Federal Pandemic Unemployment Compensation (FPUC) payments." Anyone know when I'll actually get my first payment? I've completed my waiting week and certified for benefits, but I'm confused about when the money will hit my account. Does the system typically take a few more days after processing the waiting week?

Got a second waiting week for unemployment claim after returning - is this normal?

I opened my claim back in September 2022, served a waiting week, then went back to work. Now I'm claiming again for the summer and they gave me another waiting week. My payment history shows two waiting weeks - one from September and one from last week. Is this normal? Anyone else deal with this? Looking at my payment history: Week Ending | Total Amount | Net Amount | Effective Days | Release Date | Type ------------|--------------|------------|----------------|--------------|------ 07/02/2023 | $126.00 | $110.25 | 1 | 07/03/20 | 07/02/2023 | $0.00 | $0.00 | 3 | 06/30/2023 | Waiting week 09/11/2022 | $0.00 | $0.00 | 1 | 09/15/2022 | Waiting week As you can see, I had a waiting week back in September 2022 (week ending 09/11/2022) when I first filed, and now I have another waiting week for 07/02/2023. I did get a partial payment for that same week (07/02/2023) with $126.00 total and $110.25 net amount, but there's also that waiting week showing up. I didn't expect to serve another waiting week since I already did one in September. Is this how it's supposed to work? Do you have to serve a new waiting week if you stop claiming for a while and then start again?

Unemployment account suddenly shows $8,611.20 in overpayments and penalties after system error during weekly certification - how do I fix this?

Just certified my weekly benefits and noticed something wrong. I certified twice because the system showed my first one didn't go through. Now my account shows I owe over $8,611.20 in overpayments and penalties! Still unemployed and haven't received any notices in the mail. When I check my account details, it clearly shows: Weekly Benefit Amount: $468.00 Maximum Amount Payable: $12,168.00 Effective Days Remaining: 40 But now it also shows: Amount you owe for overpaid benefits: $7,488.00 Amount you owe for penalties: $1,123.20 Total amount you owe: $8,611.20 How could I suddenly owe so much money? My benefit amount is only $468 per week, and I still have 40 effective days remaining out of my maximum payable amount of $12,168.00. I think the system must have double-counted my certification and charged me for receiving benefits I never actually got. I've been religiously filing every week as required and haven't received any notice about this in the mail or email. Does anyone know what could have caused this massive overpayment amount or how to fix it? Should I call the unemployment office? Is there a specific form I need to fill out to dispute this? I'm really stressed because I can't afford to pay back $8,611.20 when I'm still unemployed.
